When the Doctor Uses A Hack -
Chapter 1081 - 1084: I Want to Become a Tsinghua Professor?
Hearing Chen Cang say that, there was not much of a reaction from everyone.
Disappointment?
Perhaps everyone was used to it!
Occupational diseases mostly only shorten their careers, but Marfan syndrome could discount their lifespan.
In fact, Tian Zhengkai was not the only patient with Marfan syndrome around them.
Ninety-five percent of athletes with Marfan syndrome die from cardiovascular complications.
One of the most well-known victims was Haiman, one of the biggest rivals of American female volleyball player Lang Ping, who died suddenly on the court in 1986 due to a ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysm—a severe complication from Marfan syndrome.
This "death list" of the disease also includes more names from the sports circle: Han Pengshan, a Chinese male basketball player, died suddenly in 1984;
Zhu Gang, a Sichuan volleyball player, died suddenly in 2001;
Zhang Jiadi, once dubbed "Little Yao Ming", a former player of the Liaoning men's basketball team, died suddenly from a heart attack in 2012;
Hu Xuan, a former national women's volleyball player, died suddenly from a heart attack in 2016;
Lu Fei, a former main setter of the Chinese men's volleyball team, died from worsening abdominal aortic dissection in 2017...
And so on...
There were too many.
Patients with Marfan syndrome, due to their unique physique, have advantages in certain sports.
There is a saying that goes, "Every gift from fate has already been priced in secret."
It's like the coin of fate; during the transaction, the chips are secretly swapped.
However, this is just a jest; who would willingly trade their life for such a talent?
Indeed!
Patients with Marfan syndrome generally have tall stature and elongated limbs, possessing an athletic physique unlike ordinary people, yet this disease is also called the "giant killer."
The incidence rate is 1/5000 to 1/3000, with most patients having a family history, while 15% to 30% of cases are due to spontaneous mutations.
Until 2018, Marfan syndrome was listed in China's "First Batch of Rare Diseases Catalogue."
Seeing this, everyone sighed continuously and started to leave one after another.
Chen Cang, seeing this scene, could only feel somewhat helpless.
But such is life.
After everyone had left, Chen Cang returned to his office.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have exchanged a level 85 elite aortic dissection monster and received the following rewards: 1. Bio-mimetic mold x50; 2. Increase in affinity with Meng Xi +50; 3. 100,000 experience points.]
Chen Cang looked at the rewards, suddenly curious.
Bio-mimetic mold?
What is that?
But seeing so many people around, he gave up and decided to check it when he got home.
Sitting there, Chen Cang suddenly became curious about how long it takes others to perform this aortic arch replacement surgery?
He simply searched online, and upon finding out, he was startled.
The fastest aortic arch replacement surgery in the country takes only 18 minutes!
Chen Cang fell silent.
Damn...
His 40 minutes seemed to just pass.
18 minutes, to separate the aortic arch, suture eight junctions, and deal with all the details... that's too difficult!
Chen Cang, feeling helpless, shook his head; he wasn't aiming for speed; what he pursued was stability.
He should practice well when he gets home.
At this time, Chen Cang's phone rang; it was the hospital director Wu.
Picking up the phone, Chen Cang smiled: "Director Wu, hello."
Wu Tongpu replied with a smile, "Chen Cang, come to my office. I have something to discuss with you."
Chen Cang nodded upon hearing this and walked towards Wu Tongpu's office.
Just as he walked in, Chen Cang spotted a familiar face: Li Kai!
The Dean of Xiehe Hospital and also the Dean of the Medical School.
Apart from Li Kai, there were two other men, middle-aged, laughing and chatting with Li Kai.
Upon entering, Chen Cang greeted them all.
"How do you do, Dean Wu, Dean Li!"
Everyone sized up Chen Cang, nodding with satisfied smiles.
Wu Tongpu stood up, "Chen Cang, let me introduce you. This is Dean Li Kai of the Xiehe Medical School, this is Director Zhan Yufeng from the graduate department, and this is Professor Hao Jun, the Vice President of Tsinghua University."
Chen Cang hurriedly nodded and greeted them one by one, but he also started to worry, wondering what this was all about.
Even the Vice President of Tsinghua University was here?
Li Kai looked at Chen Cang and smiled, "We meet again today."
"Today, we have come together to extend an invitation to you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang became curious.
What was the invitation for?
Zhan Yufeng looked at Chen Cang, "Doctor Chen, we are very interested in you, and our students are even more interested in you. Today, we came here on behalf of the people!"
Zhan Yufeng spoke humorously, chuckling, "Today, I am here on behalf of our school to invite you to become a professor at our school."
These words stunned Chen Cang!
"A professor at Xiehe?" Chen Cang weakly inquired.
Zhan Yufeng laughed, "That's right!"
At this moment, Vice President Hao Jun of Tsinghua University spoke earnestly, "Doctor Chen, we have seriously considered this. You have a comprehensive way of thinking about emergency medicine and clinical medicine, and profound insights into various disciplines. We would like to invite you to become a professor at our Xiehe Medical School."
"Of course, we have also considered your time constraints. You are quite busy and cannot stay long in the capital, so our idea is to tentatively invite you to be a visiting professor at the Tsinghua University Xiehe Medical School. What do you think?"
These words made Chen Cang slightly excited!
A visiting professor at Tsinghua University, Xiehe Medical School?
Would my long-held wish be realized so soon?
Chen Cang felt himself swelling with pride!
He suddenly felt that Teacher Meng Yourong was not worthy of him.
Hahaha…
As Chen Cang daydreamed, Li Kai and the others stared at the silent Chen Cang, also stunned.
Wu Tongpu was stunned too!
This young man, was his ambition so high?
Did he loath being a visiting professor at Tsinghua University?
With this thought, Wu Tongpu quickly said, "Chen Cang, the title of visiting professor is an honorary one; you don't need to visit the school regularly, mainly collaborating on research, just occasionally giving a report or conducting a lecture would suffice."
Hao Jun nodded, "Exactly, Doctor Chen, the development of modern medicine involves multidisciplinary integration, and Tsinghua University can provide more resources. We regularly organize various professor salons and discussions."
"Our school also has many outstanding young people, and I believe you will have common grounds."
Everyone spoke earnestly and persuasively!
Chen Cang quickly said, "Thank you, President Hao! Thank you, Dean Li! Thank you, Director Zhan!"
Chen Cang's sudden thanks surprised the four men.
Did he disagree?
Wu Tongpu was also taken aback.
Seeing their reactions, Chen Cang quickly added, "I am willing! I am willing!"
Li Kai and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief…
This young man!
Hao Jun smiled, "Well, we came in person to let you know. Let's tentatively schedule the formalities for next Monday? You can give a lecture at the school and we will officially appoint you as a professor."
